【3】

Named entities: Li Meiqi (already in the glossary). Cui Nidi - we need to decide. It's a character name; it's a transliteration but it's a name. According to the rule, we must use pinyin for personal names. So we will output 'Cui Nidi'. We'll add an entry.

【6】

No named entities.

In the next shot, the endless green code becomes the real world.

No.

【9】

Named: Cui Nidi (again).

【11】

Named: 崔妮蒂. Also "特工" is generic (agent). Not a name.

【14】

No.

This shot is shown in slow motion, featuring bullet time and flying shards of falling glass, looking quite shocking.

【16】

Mo Feisi believes they should keep a ship, awaiting the Oracle's guidance in the Matrix world.

【18】

"It's not the only one; he had it before too!"

No named.

【22】

No.

"The CGI feels too strong!" Hu Bei muttered.

【25】

But we need to verify if Hu Bei is indeed a name; it's likely a netizen name. We'll treat as such.

【27】

Named: 尼奧 (Neo) -> we decided "Ni Ao". Also "這人" generic.

【29】

Named: Cui Nidi.

【31】

Named: Sai Ruofu – we decided on 'Sai Ruofu'. Also Ni Ao again.

【33】

Named: Ni Ao. Also 'Taiji' is a martial arts term.

【35】

Named: Zou Zhaolong, Sai Ruofu again, Ni Ao, and Oracle.

【38】

No named.

The overall style is both cyberpunk and somewhat sci-fi.

【40】

The fight scenes are smooth and flashy, giving a sense of showing off.

No.

【43】

Named: Ni Ao, Zou Zhaolong.

【45】

Named: Mount Zion. Also 'captain' is a generic rank; we should exclude it as a generic form of address.

【47】

Named: Smith (glossary).

【49】

Named: Cui Nidi.

【51】

Named: Bei En, Ni Ao.

【53】

Named: Mo Feisi, Zion Base.

【56】

No named.

Three agents in black suits and sunglasses enter, surround Ni Ao, but are easily taken down by the male lead.

【58】

"Yeah, the dream opening in Lion Camel Ridge was pretty good; I really didn't expect Tang Seng to die in his first life!"

【60】

Cui Nidi, who is driving, worries about the male lead and asks where he is.

【62】

One shoots up high, then dives down, stirring the clouds into rolling waves, incredibly cool.

No.

【66】

No.

"It's hard not to fall into depravity in this situation!"

No.

【70】

No.

"Holy crap, won't all those ahead have fallen into depravity?"

No.

【74】

No.

"What does 'release' mean? Won't it turn from antivirus software into a virus?"

No.

【78】

No.

On screen, the conversation between Mo Feisi and the ship's communications officer also confirms the audience's guess.

【80】

"Holy crap, is the virus database upgraded?"

No.

【83】

Named: Matrix world. Also 'male lead' is generic.

【85】

Named: Mo Feisi, Zion Base. 'commander' is a generic rank.

【87】

Named: Ni Ao, Bei En. Matrix world.

【89】

Named: male lead is generic. Also 'Bian Fu Xia' (Batman) is a proper noun (character name). It's a transliteration of Batman; it's a name. Should we treat as name and romanize? It's a foreign character name; we should use pinyin? Actually it's a transliteration: Bian Fu Xia. Without tones: 'Bian Fu Xia'. But it's a well-known character; we could translate meaning? It's not meaningful; it's a transliteration. According to rule, we must use pinyin for person's name. So we need to output pinyin: 'Bian Fu Xia'. However, we might also consider that it's a known trademark; but instruction says exclude real-world brands/apps/celebrities? Actually it says exclude real-world brands/apps/celebrities. Batman is a celebrity/fictional character; but it's a real-world brand? It's a fictional character from comics, but it's a well-known IP. The instruction says exclude real-world brands/apps/celebrities. Batman is a real-world celebrity/fictional character but still a real-world IP. I'd exclude? However, it's a named entity (character). The instruction says list every named entity / coined term: characters, places, etc. So we should include Batman as a character name. But we need to decide whether to translate meaning or romanize. Since it's a transliteration of a foreign name, we should romanize per rule for person's name. So we will include 'Bian Fu Xia'. However, we might also consider that it's a well-known term and we could keep as 'Batman'. But the instruction says we must not translate meaning; we must use pinyin for person's name. So we will romanize.

【94】

Thus for a three-character name like Bian Fu Xia, we need to decide if it's surname + given name? It's not a Chinese name; it's a transliteration. We could treat it as a three-character given name with no surname? Not sure. Safer to just output each syllable separated by space: 'Bian Fu Xia'. However, the glossary didn't have examples for three-character names. We'll follow pattern: treat as given name (no surname) and keep as one word? That would be 'Bianfuxia'. But that seems odd. I think we should output each syllable separated by space, as that is typical for transliterations of foreign names in pinyin (e. g., 'Bian Fu Xia'). Without tones: 'Bian Fu Xia'. We'll go with that.

Fortunately, another person's shout caused Ni Ao and the others to turn back, thwarting the assassination attempt.

【96】

"Director Jiang kinda likes using dream openings!"

【98】

Another named Bei En was about to leave when Agent Smith appeared, but saw his palm pierce Bei En's chest.

【100】

The next second, the male lead played by Wu Jiazu wakes up in bed.

【102】

Just as we were saying this, Cui Nidi got shot; the bleeding scene looks fake, very much like a game shot.

【104】

They discovered agents suddenly appearing inside the Matrix, numerous coding errors popping up, and the encryption procedure was unprecedented.

No named.

【108】

No.

Ni Ao looked around and saw a world made of green code, while Zou Zhaolong was composed of golden character code.

【110】

The two walked down a long corridor, with identical doors on both sides.

No.

【113】

Named: Zion Base. 'commander' is generic.

【115】

Named: Ni Ao. Also 'earpiece' is generic.

【118】

Named: Smith (glossary).

Overall, the places where the male lead appears have more and more bugs.

【120】

The ship's communications officer tapped the computer a few times, revealing a helpless smile: 'I'm just playing Superman!'

【122】

"This is god, it's too awesome!"

No.

【125】

Named: Ni Ao, Oracle.

Because he felt there was only one way to save humanity, that is Neo!

The commander was furious, but he lacked absolute authority and could not relieve Morpheus of his duties.

"Agents?" the two guards exclaimed.

The two fought, with the score mainly featuring Chinese drum beats. After a splendid, dazzling fight, Seraph called a halt and led the male protagonist to see the Oracle.

A black, venom-like substance covered Bane; when the venom dissipated, Bane had turned into another Smith, then picked up the phone and vanished.

At that moment, a man in black knocked on the door looking for Neo.

And in the Matrix, the two people left by Smith finally received the message from the Oracle, one of them taking something and leaving first.

Because of the backlight, the audience couldn't see his face clearly.

"Holy shit, turns out I was dreaming!"

The lower-class Zionites had no idea what had happened and still held a massive celebration.

"If I were the male protagonist, I'd just go ahead and enjoy myself!"

Zheng Peipei, who played the Oracle, sat in a chair feeding pigeons.

The next second, the iron door bulged from being hit, and after two more blows, the iron door was flung open.

The Oracle said they could have a good talk, starting from the simplest things.

The male protagonist asked, "Aren't you human? Are you a program from the machine world?"
